Color is a powerful tool that is tied to cultural, political, and social influences. There are three primary colors - red, yellow, and blue - that can be mixed to create all other colors. Secondary colors are created by mixing two primary colors, and tertiary colors are made by mixing a primary color with a secondary color. Different color combinations and schemes such as complementary, analogous, warm, and cool colors can be used to create color harmony or contrast in a design. The cultural and political associations of different colors must also be considered when using color in communication.
